looks like it's not a python2/3 problem
I build libxml2 and itstool with python2, but got the same (random) segfaults
while building gnome-desktop.
Wrote to the author/maintainer of itstool and this is the reply:

I'm aware of the issue and I'm looking into it. It's caused by
memory cleanup I put in in 2.0.4 on some libxml2 objects. It seems I
got it wrong and things are getting double freed.
In case you want to follow along, I filed a bug report with my findings
so far:

So looks like itstool-2.0.4 is broken. I guess a new version will be
released as soon as the problem will get fixed. Meantime, I'm using
itstool-2.0.2, which is fine.
